6 December 2053 — Molineux, Wolverhampton. Three games. Three wins. No goals conceded. Chelsea’s December charge continued with an assured 3-0 dismantling of Wolves, reaffirming their place at the Premier League summit and showcasing a right-back in the form of his life.
⚡ Fast Start, Full Control
Chelsea wasted no time asserting dominance. Johnny Jenkins opened the scoring in the 10th minute with a simple close-range finish, and just two minutes later, the game’s standout performer, Rogério José, rifled a devastating low shot into the bottom corner from 19 yards. Wolves looked shell-shocked. They never recovered.
🧱 Rogério the Rocket
The Brazilian full-back delivered one of the season’s most complete performances. A goal, an assist, three tackles, 100% headers won, and 92% pass completion. He drove Chelsea forward down the right relentlessly, even supplying the pass for Júnior‘s late third that wrapped up the contest with a low drive in the 75th minute.
His 9.2 rating, Player of the Match award, and now 44 interceptions and 33 tackles this season, underline his transformation into a title-defining force.
